Tottenham vs Watford Prediction & Match Preview - Live

Tottenham vs Watford | English League Cup | Date: Wednesday, 26 September 2018 | Kick-Off at 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET | Venue: Stadium mk (Milton Keynes)

Tottenham will seek revenge for the 2-1 defeat at Vicarage Road in the fourth round of the new Premier League season. This is the first defeat of the Spurs in the campaign, which ended with a series of three wins and that really began a difficult time for them.

The men of Mauricio Pochettino lost to Liverpool (1-2 at home) and Inter Milan (2-1 in the Champions League). They returned on Saturday afternoon beating Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 at AMEX. Can they win two consecutive victories and cheer up before the trip to Huddersfield on weekends? They are ready to face Watford in the Premier League match in the third round of the League Cup on Wednesday night.

The game will not be played in London because the opening of the new stadium is delayed. The Spurs will travel to Milton Keynes to "welcome" the Hornets.

Tottenham vs Watford: Face to face

• Tottenham was the dominant force in the history of face-to-face encounters with the Hornets.
• The Spurs won 15, tied 4 and lost only 6 of 25 games with Watford.
• Tottenham was on an eight-game winning streak and a draw before falling to Watford 2-1 on Vicarage Road earlier this month.

Tottenham vs Watford: prediction

Watford is undoubtedly one of the most pleasant surprises of the first part of the Premier League season. They won four of four at the beginning of the campaign. The Hornets finished fourth despite taking just one point in the last two games against Manchester United and Fulham.

However, it will be anything but an easy date for the Spurs that cost 1.45 to win the victory at night. There is no value there, considering Watford's form at the beginning of the season.

Instead, we found that the BTTS option is much more suitable for this game. Tottenham has conceded at least one goal in six of his seven games and only remains to reach 1.66 for both ends at the MK stadium.
